Harbour Grace - Anglican Baptism Records, 1784 - 1794

The following baptisms were performed during the ministry of the Rev. James Balfour whose record keeping is best described as dubious. I made no attempt to correct spelling, punctuation, duplication, ambiguity, or chronology. It was often impossible to discern in which community the baptisms occurred. I did not record whether these baptisms were Public or Private thus the originals will have to be consulted to find this out. I highly recommend that the original records be consulted before assuming any of this transcription to be accurate!
The records were transcribed by BONNIE HICKEY in March 2000. While I have endeavored to be as
correct as humanly possible, there may be typographical or interpretive errors. For verification purposes, photocopies of these documents can be
consulted at either:

Record entry for 3 Jan 1784 show 3 children of John & Lucrecce Zachary: William, Jane and Zachary.
The surname eventually was changed to Sacery and the childs name of Zachary was changed to Zachariah (Zacharias) for some of the records for his family.
Zachariah Sacrey married a woman named Elizabeth.
John & Lucrecce Zacrey (Sacrey) were my Great Great Great Great Great Grandparents.
